That's....actually one of those things that's right in my stupid face that I'd not considered. Good point. Or rather, obvious point for most...good point for the likes of me.

Neither have I. Though my experience counts for little in the specific matter, as back when I was running 'pure' B/X I didn't follow the (relatively) sharply structured way of rolling for encounters,etc. and the treasure that would be 'tied' to them.

As Lord Vader once said: "All too easy."
As an aside: Maybe it's in my head, but including the years on the old GG forums as well, I always feel like I'm butting heads with BloodAxe and it's not on purpose and sorta makes me feel like a real jerk. I hope it doesn't come off that way.
Oh! BloodAxe, by the way, in my one-shots and mini-mini campaigns (because I still use Tunnels & Trolls for my 'big' game) I'm still using your tactical mods for combat you posted like a year or more ago on the old forums. Thanks again for that.
